THE FUGITIVE SLAVE BILL.
THE FUGITIVE SLAVE BILL. ."IT is finished: the fugitive slave law is written, and Rued, and sealed the duty of the citizens of this republic imperatively prescribed and fenced rbund by pains ,nd penalties. Representatives, Senators, and President, ave united in .the deed of treason to freedom, to humanity, to God. th Legislation has broken down out doors, and desecrated x Privacy of our homes. Love is outlawed flrota the hodse- » f of the American freeman. Charity must henceforth be "S'tive with the weary fainting beggars whom we are not fc '^elter or feed. The issue has come at last between the .thority of Almighty God, and the dictation of the slave- rers and their abettors. now let every man of conscience ask himself, "at is my duty in this crisis?*' The martyr age of the j**ted States is about to return again.

STATE OF THE COUNTRy,-There is a formidable array of reports of agrarian outrages in the provincial papers. A bailiff was, a few days ago. bruitally murdered in the county of Limerick. Threatening notices, malicious burnings,, and crop-lifting, charac terise Tipperary. The county of Westmeath ha* been the scene of regular battles between dishones8 tenants and the servants of suffering landiordst Waterfo-d contributes a fair supply of startling facts, while Cork, Lilkenny, and some other countries no- tribute to swell the list of criminal offences. CURIOUS ADVEETISEMENTS—Some curious adver- tisements appeared in the Times of last week. Among them was one addressed "To Autogiapli Collectors, offering-For sale, along letter of Professor Webster's, the murderer of Dr. Parkman." Another holds forth that all gentlemen who wish to speak French correctly, without either trouble or expense, may do so by dining every day at a certain hotel, where a dinner of French dishes is served up for half-a-crown. Another is headed Triple Birth," and is the appeal of a poor woman who has given birth to three living children, her husband being out of work. THE LATE FIRE, IN MARK-LANE.—RECOVERY OF SOMR THOUSAND POUNDS' WORTH OF PROPERTY. -Six weeks had on Thursday elapsed from the time the great fire in Mark-lane commenced, and during the whole of that period between thirty and forty men have been employed in cooling the ruins and collecting together the salvage, but of such magnitude is the former, that it is expected another three weeks will be required to get the articles still remaining out. It is expected that what have already been saved will realise from t.3,500 to f 4,090. In the City of London Small Debts' Court, on Wednesday, a Mr Croxton recovered 14s, 6d. from the Heme Bay Steam-boat Company, forexpenses incurred in travelling from Margate to Deal. He had taken a passage in one of the company's steam-boats from London to Deal, but in consequence of bad weather the vessel put in at Margate, and Mr. Croxton hired a conveyance to Deal, for which he claimed payment. It seems that after he had left Margate for Deal the weather improved, and the vessel proceeded on her voyage; hut the judge decided that Mr. Croxton had no notice of the captain's change of mind, and there. fore plaintiff was entitled to recover judgment, which was given for the amount. A love-sick swain attempted to commit suicide by hanging himself to the bell-handle of a gentleman's houae, at Exeter, a few evenings since. He had been paying his addresses to one of the domestics.—lovers' quarrels were constantly occurring, and at last the lady being tried of her wonld-be lord; refused to receive any turther advances, and out of revenge the youth fastened his neckcloth to the bell-handle, by which the bell was put in violent motion, and brought the household to his rescue, by one of whom he was released, amid hearty laughter on all sides. He was taken before the magistrates on the following morning, and fined 6s. 6d. VERDICT or MANSLAUGHTER.—An inquest wis held at Manchester, on Tuesday, on the body of Charles Car- lisle, engine-driver at the manufactory of Mr. Charles Pooley, Bradford Road, who was killed on Thursday week by the bursting of a boiler. It appeared that the boiler was old and chicked, and that the Engineer, William Sinith, had promised that it should hot be USed till new flues were put in, but had not adhered to his promisev The jury returned the above verdict against Smith. FATAL AFFRAY.—A dretdful occurrence took place on Duddon Sands on Thursday week. Samuel Todd, a tailor and fishterman at Calton-in-Furness, proceeded with his daughter to the sands for purpose ot attending to his nets, taking with him. as was his custom, a loaded gun On his arrival he discovered a sailor belonging to a vessel laying near his nets, busy gathering up some 11 flocks" that were scattered up and down the sands, but which I odd claimed as his property. Some altercation ensued, and Todd struck the youth with a very dangerous weapon, Called a 1. cockle scrape." Upon this a ship carpenter named John Kay remonstrated with him. and endeavoured to take the scraper from him. when Todd's daughter fetched him the gun, and the consequence was that Todd took deliberate aim and shot the poor carpenter through the heart. Death was instantaneous, and Todd is committed for manslaughter. NEWPORT, MONMOUTHSHIRE.—On 8unday night or early on Monday morning, the South Wales Railway station was broken into. When the clerk and porters c-ime into the office to receive the mail train on Monday norning they found that one of the Octagonal windows looking out on the platform-, had the top and bottom Mpiai es of glass broken in the corners next the slides (which were let lino the sash, an,1 were not eitsily dis- cernible.) The slides were open, and the windows slightly ajar. This of course awakened instant suspicion; and on looking round it was discovered iliat a drawer, in which the clerks ktpt tiie keys of the iron safe had been forced open and keys weie gone. This led the way to the room on which the .-wite was depooitcd-a small privare lomii ol the jilaiform side o! the station.

ADDRESS TO THE PROTESTANTS…
ADDRESS TO THE PROTESTANTS OF THE EM- PIRE BY THE COMMITTEE OF THE NA- TIONAL CLUB. The Committee of the National Club have issued an ad. dress to the laity of the Church, and to the great body of the Protestants of the empire," which, after disclaiming any intention to meddle with the religion of the Romanists, thus deals with the question. *• What is to be done ? "— The first step is to lodge a protest as public as the claim- to sovereign as its author-as distinct as its terms. A foreign State assumes to itself the right to divide Enland into dioceses—and to assign them to its bishops, and to com- mit them to our people. Nothing can be more open than this act- Nothing more sovereign than the jurisdiction claimed. Let the highest authority of the English State meet this usurped authority of the Church of Rome. Let the public document which records the claim be as publicly repelled. Let the declaration of this foreign potentate be met by a de- claration from the lips of the Queen of England; The mode is plain. The duty urgent. The time ifi at tend. The Papal See has perpetrated this daring act during the recess of Parliament. No British Minister, alive to the in- tegrity and independence of England, would have borne this tamely for one hour. But the functions of the Government are, it seems, in •beyance; not so the duties and the power of the English People. Let them rouse themselves, and throughout the em- pire give but one indignant response. Let them show the Romish See that the spirit of England is untainted and un- subdued j and firm as when she repelled the threats, ana ■rat the yoke of the Vatican, so firmly does she now defy the usurpation of Rome, and rally her subjects in unyielding allegiance round the supremacy of its Crown. Let us demand this from Government. In three months the Queen of England will convene and meet the Parliament. Let her not then pass unnoticed an attempt which, continually and successfully repelled by our early English Sovereigns, has for the last 300 years been unparalleled in British history. Let the Queen speak the language worthy of the spirit of her great ancestors. Let her declare from her throne that she has noticed this arrogant invasion of her imperial rights, and marks it to her people as in insolent usurpation. Let her declare that these assumed offices have no rank within her dominions that she treats these intrusive Prelates as if they had no place within her realm that neither in her Court, nor in her Government, will she recognise their offices 1Ir powers. Let her, in the language of the noble-minded Elizabeth, England's first Protestant Queen, declare, that she "thinks it foul scorn that foreign Prince, Priest, or Potentate should moil or meddle within this realm of Eng- land." Conceiving the Government to be unwilling to adopt this Worse, the committee of the National Club urge the neces- sity of extorting it" by meetings, petitions and remoa- •trances.
MEETING OF THE CITY CLERGY.
MEETING OF THE CITY CLERGY. A meeting of the City Clergy was held on Thursday, at Sion College, when an Address to the Bishop of London was agreed to, which was presented to his Lordship yesterday, at London House. Another meeting is to be held on Thurs- day next, for the purpose of considering an Address to Her Majesty, on the same subject. The following is the address to the Diocesan :— TO THE RIGHT HON. AND RIGHT RBV. THB LORD BISHOP OP LONDON. We, the President and Fellows of Sion College, approach yar Lordship with sentiments of sincere respect and affec- tion. Having heard with indignation and concern of the recent aggression of the Bishop of Rome, in appointing, by an authority, a Cardinal Archbishop of Westminster, And in assigning, under a Papal Bull, certain districts of this Country to the spiritual jurisdiction of the newly-entitled Bishops of the Roman Church, we feel it our duty to declare resolution, with God's help and blessing, to co-operate in £ tiar4tng, as far as we are able, the rights and privileges of ancient and independent Church from the assaults of a foreign and usurped dominion. We call to mind the fact, that the faith of Christ in its Purity of doctrine and worship had been planted and Established in the realm of Britain some centuries before the Mission from the Roman See in the time of Pope Gregory had set foot on our shores. We know, when the Church of Nome had, by its unscriptural decrees and idolatrous practices, "irrupted the primitive faith and worship, with what joy the to reformation was heard in this land, and at how great 3 price our religious freedom was vindicated, and recovered by our Protestant forefathers. And we believe and trust that there exists in the laity as well as in the Clergy of our 'toQUllunion, such a hearty desire for the maintenance of Christain truth in all its integrity and purity, as effectually resist this novel and presumptuous movement, which ap- Appears to us nothing less than an affront to the laws, the sovereign Majesty, to the Prelates, the Clergy, and people Qf this Protestant kingdom, and a bold attempt to undermine and eventually destroy our Constitution in Church and State. We cannot conclude this memorial without requesting to to your l<ordsh p our best and warmest thanks for the yJKnified, uncompromising, and Christian tone of your reply t' our brethren of W estmillster, and we pray .hat your Lord- ?y'P. w'll be"pleased, under the guidance and blessing of the Divine Head of the Church, to afford your powerful aid and couusel in the present conjuncture, to us and our flocks.

SoUTH WALKS RAILWAY.—It Is rumoured* says the Welshman, that a meeting of the directors of the South Wales Railway has taken place, and that they have dptet. mined to proceed with the works westward of Swansea fin* mediately alter Christmas, or, at all events, very early In the spring. The most gratifying portion of the rumour is a state- ment that Mr. Ta!bot, M.P., the spirited chairman of the company, has voluntarily offered to advance a sufficienr sum to complete the works. At all evernts, it is an undoubted fact that the contractors on those portions of the line west- ward of Swansea have received notice to hsld themselves in readiness for an immediate recommencement of the works on their several takings. STRANGE Popish PROCEEDINGS IN THE STREETS OF LONDON.— For the last few evenings the neighbourhood of High Street and Union Street, in the borough, have been kept in continual excitement by some Romish priests. On each evening during the week, one of the courts being illumi- nated by means of candles in the windows., a priest standing on a chair, dressed in canonicals, and having a crucifix held behind him, so as to give the interior of the court, as nearly as possible, the apper-ance ofa Roman Catholic chapel during mass has held forth to the surrounding multitudes.on the doctrines and progress in England of the Romish religion; re- ferring especially to the late assumption of spiritual power in this country by the heads of the Romish Church, from which the preacher concluded that the Established Church will be shortly overthrown, and the Roman Catholic religion put in its place. The crowds gathered not only in the court. but in the streets at either end, have caused serious obstructions in the neeighbourhood, but the police did not interfere. THE MOST EFFBCTUALCURE FOR GOUT AND RHEUMATISM ARE HOLLOWAY'S OINTMENT AND PILLS.—A frequent cause of these complaints is the inflammatory state of the blood, attendant with bad digestion, lassitude, and great debility, showing the want of a proper circulation of the ftuids, and that impurity of the blood greatly aggravates these painful disorders. Holloway's Pills are of so purifying a nature that a few doses, taken in time, is an effectual preventive against Gout and Rheumatism but any one that has an attack of either, should use Holloway's Ointment also, the powerful properties of which combined with the effect of the Pills, ensures a certain cure. PotsoNiNG.- The lives or not fewer than fifteen persons have been placed in jeopardy, near Skirbeck, in Lincoln- shire, by poison. A farmer named Broadberry, who resides at Cow-bridge Bar, on Thursday last treated his men, who were thrashing in the barn, to "Some ale. In the course of three quarters of an hour afterwards the whole party were seized with violent vomiting and cramps. Medical assist- ance having arrived, the whole of them but a man named Burrows, who had drank twice as much as the others, and Who is proitoanced to be in a precarious situation, reco- vered. The ale and the cask had been analyzed by a sur- geon, aiid though he found nothing of a poisonous nature in it, he gave it as his undoubted opinion that the parties laboured under symptoms of arsenical poisoning. HORRIBLE MURDER IN JERSEY.—A horrible and re- volting murder was committed in Saint Saviour's Road, on thepereonof Mary Carletoii, a pensioner's wife. It appears that, on the morning of Sunday week, her husband left the house and locked the door, about nine o'clock. The house not having been opened as usual, some of the neighbours forced the shutters, and discovered the unfor- tunate woman lying upon her back, with her legs crossed, and Weltering in her own blood. Alarm was immediately given, and the husband, who 'there seemed to be no doubt was the murderer, Was arrested and lodged in gaol. On the Sunday evening, an inquest was held on the body, which was in a most mutilated condition; the left ear was cut off, and there was a large wound in the neck. The jury, when the accounts left Jersey, weve still sitting. The parties were in the habit of living in constant discord, and it is supposed they were intoxicated at the time of the murder. In reference to the appointment of Baron noIre to the office of Vice-Chancellor the IAID Times saysThe ap- pointment will be received with acclamation by the whole r profession. Baron Rolfe is one of the ablest lawyers of our timej he is no mere quibbter and wood-splitter, but he takes the largest grasp of a question and decides it upon principle. His judgments will be great authorities." ACCIDENT TO MR. CHARLES MAtHEWs.—We regret to state that on Thursday night, whilst Mr. Mathews was fencing with Mr. Vining, in the Lyceum Theatre, in the first scene of Planche's new comedy of My Heart's Idol," the point of Mr. Vining's sword passed completely through the fleshy part of Mr. Mathews's right hand, between the thumb and first finger, Mr. Mathews left the stage imme- diately. The accident, although one of a painful kind, is not, we are happy to say, likely to be productive Ot any very serious consequence. The piece was necessarily cut short, from Mr. Mathews's total inability to appear again for the evening. A MAN FOUND DEAD IN A RAILWAY STATION.—On Sunday night, about nine o'clock, the official at the Eastean Counties Railway Station at Stratford found lying in the station the dead body of a man. aged about sixty-five, 1 dressed in black, and having on his person a silver watch and three shillings in silver. In Scotland, as late as 16ol j the windows of the country were not glazed, and only the upper parts, and even of those of the king's palaces, had glass; the lower ones having two wooden shutters, to open at pleasure to admit the fresh air. It is stated that Prince Albert intends joiniug the order of Manchester Unity of Independent Odd Fellows. Hift Roya) Highness will be made a member at a speaial Lodgev to be held m London previous to the Exhibition of ]8510 There was not a single complaint preferred before the magistrates sitting at Guildhall on Tuesday-a circumstance unprecedented in the police history of the metropolis. The sitting magistrate claimed a pair of white kid gloves on the occasion. Nearly all the sea coal colliers in the Aberdare valley are out of employment, and the rest are but working half time. The cause alleged for this late strike, having been productive ofa want of confidence on the part ol purchasers. ABERDARE LIBRARY.—This institution is no more, Its decease occurred last week, when the books; &c.) were dis- posed of, to clear the debts incurred. More than forty sheep have lately been killed by dogs in the neighbourhood of Kenda) i and two dogs, which are supposed to have been the sheepkillers, have been shot. Five Socialists, forming part of the Crops of Voraces, of Lyons, have been sentenced by eourtmartiat to impnsonment for one year, aud to be deprived of their civil rights during the same period. THE clergy of Liverpool have held a meeting to Consider the propriety of adopting open-air preaching, as an instru- ment for improving the spiritual condition of the inhabitants of Liverpool and its neighbourhood." The proposition met with general approval, and the campaign is to open in the spring. AT the last Somersetshire assizes, held lit Wells, no less than fourteen special jurymen, who hiui neglected to attend in the Case White v. Arter, were fined £ lOeach. THERE has been another fire at Gravesend, and a linen draper, named Marden is in custody charged with having raised it wilfully, to defraud an insurance Company. A clergyman of the Church of England, with the approba- tion of Prince Albert, proposes to give a prize of 100 guineas for the best essay on the following subject:—"In what manner the union of all nations at the grand Exhibition in 1851 may be made the most conducive to the glory of God in promoting the moral welfare of mankind. A pleasure van, returning from Hampton Court on Sun- day with a party of men and women, eighteen in number, was accidentally set on fire by a light being dropped by a man who was smoking, among the loose straw at the bottom of tho vehicle, which blazed up so fiercely that the women's dresses were ignited, and some of them severely burnt. THE IIIIIS TRADE.—Since the recent quarterly meetings of the South Staffordshire ironmongers, there has been a re- duction in some instances in the price of iron of IUs. per ton. Captain Warner, of "long range" notoriety, appeared in the London Bankruptcy Court On Thursday. His debts are between £ 7,000 and £ 8,000. THE "MORNINO CitkONICLE" AND FRKE TRADE. -It Is well known that for some time a series of articles on Labour and the Poor" have been publishing in the Mottling Chronicle, and which have attracted consider- able attention from the graphic descriptions of the condition of various classes ofartisans therein contained. The writer of these articles was Mr. Horace Mayhew, who, however, has now ceased his connection with the above paper, for reasons which he explained at a meeting of working tailors in London, on Monday night. Z, This is his explanation :—" When I began my connection with the paper," he says, "I knew how fast it was wedded to the creed of the politico-economical men of the day, and Istipulated, therefore, that nothing but the truth should be published that no tampering with the truth should take place, and that what I penned should go in. Its conductors gave me their word that it should appear. I meant to seek out the question, and so long as I stated facts connected with the state of the working men, they were to be printed. Unfortunately, I very soon began to find that anything which interfered with their notions as to what would benefit the working classes had the pen run through it; and so glaring a case of this nature occurred when I was engaged in inquiring into the condition of the bootmakers of London, that I felt I could no longer submit to it. In this case two passages were omitted from a letter to the effect that one of the bootmakers, believing that foreign boots interfered with his business, stated that he has was prepared to compete with the French work- man, provided taxes were removed from him that he looked npon duties charged upon foreign articles as the foreigner's contribution of his quota towards the expenses of the Government of this country he said, 'What would you think of admitting a Frenchman into this country and, because he was a Frenchman, allowing him to woik in a house built with untaxed brickc, lighted with untaxed light, whilst he smoked untaxed tobacco, and drank untaxation, and called upon to compete with the untaxed foreigner f RAILWAI RATING-At the various Quarter Sessions just held, the important question of railway rating, in connexion with the railway companies appealing against assessment, has come under the consideration ot the magistrates with different results. Iu the case of the Midland Railway, on the section of their line fiom Derby to Leeds, arrangements have just been made with the 70 parishes along the line, by which a reduction of abont one-third on the sums paid for parochial rates during the last six years has been agreed to. The magistrates have confirmed the rate of £600 per mile in the town of Wolverhampton,on the Shrewsbury and Birmingham Railway, against the claim of the company to be rated at only £ 150 per mile, the amount of assessment on other portions of the line. The South- Eastern Company have been assessed to f500 per mile on their Isle of Thanet line; but their appeal against being rated for their Chilham line has been respited until the decision of the Court of Queen's Bench on the general question of railway rating is made known. An order has been served on the company for payment of the rates on their Folkestone line, otherwise a distress will issue; and an order has likewise been issued against the London and North-Western Railway for payment of the rate oirjE468 per mile in the Saddle- worth district, instead of jE 100 per mile as contended for by the company.-Times. The Liverpool Aldion publishes a notice which has been issued by the Rev. Richard Greenall, the clergy- man of Stretton, in reference to a labourer who recently got married to his deceased wife's sister in another parish. It commences-a. Caution-Whereas John Cooper, of Appleton, by false representation of his plac6 of residence, has entered into marriage, at the parish church of Warrington, with the sister of his late wife, which marriage is by the laws of the land null and void. Any offspring arising therefrom will be base-born and illegitimate. The placard then proceeds to give "Warning" that no two persons can be married out of their own parish; and that persons making false representations as to their plaee of abode will subject themselves to the penalties of perjury, &c. THE SAINTs,-On Sunday last, John Die, create maker at the South Wales Pottery, when delivering "an illigant discoorse" in the Saints' Chapel, and denouncing the follies of this humble town, he declared it to be the modern Babylon, and that it would soon fall. One of his fair auditors, hearing such a fearful prophecy, called out to him. Lot, you tell lies; I say this is not Babylon, and that it will not soon fall." I tell you it will, and all will go to the nether regions," exclaimed John, most violently; and at that moment down came his Babylon by the rnn, for his stand broke down, and himself was rather unceremoniously precipitated to the ground, thus hastily fulfilling his unpalatable prognostication. It is really pitiable to see to fthat extremes thes6 poor ignorant fanatics carry thtlr delusion. SUSPECTED MVRDER.-Conslderable excitement has prevailed amongst the numerous officials and empl,oyet at the General Post-office since Saturday last, in consequence of the disappearance of Mr. Joseph Harris, one of the inspectors belonging to that establishment. The circumstances attending the case are of such an uliaccountable character as to warrant the supposition that he has been made away with. It is not a little remarkable that ever since the diabolical attempt was made to mnrder Mr. Cureton, in Aldersgate street, by placing an instrument round his neck Mr. Harris has felt some alarm for his own safety, and has frequently conversed with his friends concerning the little difficulty a band of ruffians would have in depriving a fellow. creature of life were they provided with such an instrument. IMPORTANCE OF W ATEK.-There are none of the necessaries of life so pressing as that of water- No food could be appropriated in the animal system withontit, and it composes seven-eights of the whole fabric of the human body. Through its agency our food is chiefly pret)ared before it is eaten, and after- wards elaborated in the stomach aud carried from part to part of the body in the blood, Even those who object to the element in its purc form must take it in some shape to satisfy the demands of the body. It enters the system with wine, beer, coffee, tea, soups, and bound up with the tissues of such vegetables as turnips, carrotsand potatoes. Not only is it necessary for inward supply, but man and the animal kingdom generally require for health its outward application. It Is as naturally the means of purifying- the outside as it is of vitalising the Inside of the body. Necessary as it is In this respect to uncivilised and nomadic man it becomes increasingly important as he becomes civilised and dwells in towns and cities. It is a means ot cleansing the dwelling as Well as the body. In every way, then, its ample supply Is a first nccesssiiy. In all climates, seasons, and times, there is a demand for it, and its relation to the wants of man has given distin. guishing features to nations and families. It is no wonder, then, that at a time when the figures of the statistician point to an enormous waste of life in our great cities, inquiries should be made as to how far a defective or impure supply of water is a cause of this i waste. -A iken&-uin. ARTICLES OF UTILITY FROM HOME-GROWN PRO- DVCB.-We pay to the foreigner abcut half a million annually for silk plush employed in the manufacture of very shiny" and stiff hats. whilst our own flax fields would afford us a much more agreeable and cool material, and one more closely resembliug beaver. The flax, for this purpose, should be prepared without steeping; retaining, by this omission, all the natural gloss and silkness of the fibre, and rendering it capable ot receiving a permanent jet'dye without at all injuring this appearance. Iu the other essentials—economy, flexibility, and lightness-on other material, animals or vegetable can excel plush made from fine flax; and if upon a similar foundation, the hat may be folded into any shape without breaking it. IN reply to an address signed by about 1000 graduates of Oxford, on the subjects of the Royal Supremacy and the recent judgment of the Privy Council, the Archbishop of Canterbury says, I cannot see grounds for the apprehension expressed by the subscribers, that the doctrines of our Church are exposed to danger, either from the constitution of the Judicial Committee or from the decision at,which they arrived in the case recently brought before them. It would certainly be desirable that a large proportion of the judges should be taken from ecclesiastical members of our Chu ch, if the settlement of doctrine were involved in their decisions. But, happily, this case needs not to be provided for. Our docirines and our formularies were settled at the Reformation, and the agreement or disagreement of these with any opinions which may become matter of inquiry is a question well suited to the habits of the Judicial Committee, as now existing. And having assisted at their recent deliberations, I feel bound to bear witness to the patient investigation which the question received, and the earnest desire of the members of the committee to pronounce such a sentence as should be in accordance, both in letter and spirit, with our Articles and Formularies." In the County Court held on Tuesday last, betere Mr. Francillon, judge, on the case of Woodward v. Haines" being called on, Mr, Lingwood, solicitor, was called as a witness for the plaintiff. He did not answer to his name, and the service of the subpeena being proved, the judge fined him JE8. being the amount of the plaintiff's claim on the defendant. The tender of a shilling with the subpoena was proved, and his Honour said the witness could not claim more than mileage as conduct money. He lived wi thin 200 yards of the court. Mr. Lingwood subsequently appeared in Court, and said he meant no disrespect to the Court but chimed to receive Ts. 6s. with the subptsna Subsequently his Honour remitted the fine, satisfied with Mr. Lingwood*s explanation 11 A few days since, a goose, which was swimming In Hatherton Lake, Walsall, was seen to be seized by a pike, while its beak was under water. A fierce struggle ensued, and the goose was seen to rise and sink several times until at length it disappeared altogether, having doubtless fallen a prey to the ravenous fish. In consequence of the great traffic over London bridge, it is proposed to make a communication between the east and west sides of the bridge, by forming a passage or tunnel, 7 feet high and 8 feet wide, through or rather beyond the abutment of the south orSuney end of the bridge, from the first landing of the steps on the west side. As a contrast with the forthcoming assembling of the industrious of all nations, it may be mentioned, that in the reign of Henry VIII. violent animosities existed in Eng- land between English and foreign artificers. On one occasion a violent tumult was raised in London by appren- tices and workmen, who attempted to break open prisons in order to liberate some persons confined for insulting foreigners, And before these disorders were quelled, thirteen of the rioters were executed. Four hundred others were executed and brought before the king with ropes about theii necks, and, falling on their knees, cried for mercy. A curious proclamation was afterwards issued, directing that women should not meet together to babble and talk, and that all men should keep their *ives m their houses! It is needless to add that the law is now obsolete! y THE CIty PROCESSION ON THE NINTH Of NOVEMBER. —The streets of the City will present a very curious and interesting scene on the approaching Lord Mayor's Day Amongst the change which are to be introduced upon that occasion in the great civic procession will be the following t-abstiiutes for the trumpery exhibition of the men in armour at head of the caValcadet 1 rumpetcrs on horseback, PAGE.

A WKBBIKO TRAGEDY.—John ltar.son', blacksmith, and William Mason, pitman, both of Willingteiij were at a wedding in Newcastle, on Satuiday. In the evening they left that town by train to go to the wedding supper at Earsdon. Ranson, who was not sober, got oiit "f the car- riage near to the Percy Main station, where they were to leave the North Shields linë, and stood upon the step. A gate post caught him while the train was in motion, and he was thrown under the wheel, which passed over his legs. Mason went back from ihe station, and found his comrade sitting upon the lim-* with his legs fractured; the left h'p, indeed, was crushed to pieces. He had him taken back to Newcastle by the next train going eatit, and plnced in the infirmary, where he received every atten- tion, but at one o'clock on Sunday morning he died.

I cannot but acknowledge that I am U C0I,^lu't» !or the List fifteen years in the council, should have been so far unexceptionable as to it-duce you, thus tor the SIXTH time since the passing of the Municipal Re- form Act, unsolicited, to re-elect me one of your representa- tives. My object has been. and ever will be, while I am honoured with your confidence, to promote the welfare of the borough in general, endeavouring, at the same time, to avoid every expenditure beyond that of ahsottrte necessity for sup- porting the honour of this ancient Corporation and I trust, and indeed have no reason to doul from their well known integrity and honesty of purpose, that those you have chosen as my associates on the present occasion will not only give their constant attendance at the council, but afford me their besl assistance in carrying out those principles of economy it has been my desire to establish. I repeat it, it cannot but be pleasing to mv feelings that, out of the great number of votes tendered on the first instant, only sixteen omitted to record them in my favour; and having since had access to the lists, I am proud to say that, on exa- mination, I find even among the sixteen the names of many who would have been ton happy to have inserted my name on their papers, had I made such a request. Nothing like rivalry between the two wards ought either to be encouraged or tolerated; it will be my constant endea- vour to discountance any feeling of the kind. Union is said to be strength, and I am confident it will never originate with us to plage the borough in that state which Holy Writ de- clares to beprejudiciat. "A house divided against itself must fall." Let me urge upon the council generally the adoption of similar sentiments: let us each "hear and forbear." For 61 teen years the election of Mayor has almost exclusively been confined to the Pembroke ward. At least occasionally, that boon ought to be extended to Pembroke Dock. This is but an act ot justice to which the ward is entitled, and, until coin ceded, you can never consider yourselves satisfied, or placed on those terms of equality the Legislature evidently intended you should he when awarding you an equal number of coun- ciHors. On this point the ward has heen too long silent, and though my alluding to the subject may render me liable to b« challenged with sinister motives, y..t, as I am actuated hy honester intentions, I can but say to such persons, if such there be,—" tloni soit qui mal y pense."
